At the #UNSC, @niemata calls on the #UNSC to condemn violation of the arms embargo in #Sudan. Failure to do so "signal[s] to perpetrators that they can continue to violate international law without consequences.”

Women and girls in #Sudan have no protection, no access to humanitarian or medical assistance, and nowhere to turn for help in response to widespread #CRSV. Yet they continue to "draw the bold line between hope and despair," @niemata tells the #UNSC.

“I am haunted by the reports of sexual violence that I hear every day,” @niemata tells the #UNSC, describing that rape and other forms of GBV are a defining feature of the current war in #Sudan.

Ahead of the #UNSC Open Debate on #CRSV, @niemata tells the press it is notable that “without the spread of weapons, the levels of sexual violence we are currently seeing in #Sudan would never have occurred.”
